Darragh Fitzgibbon is this week's GAA.ie Hurler of the Week.

The public has voted Cork’s Darragh Fitzgibbon the GAA.ie Hurler of the Week.

The Charleville club-man received 6,194 votes on the GAA’s Official Instagram page which put him ahead of Clare's Tony Kelly (5,193), and Waterford's Austin Gleeson (4,050).

Darragh Fitzgibbon (Cork)

The in-form Darragh Fitzgibbon was to the fore again for the Rebels as they stormed to a very impressive victory over All-Ireland champions Limerick. He scored two points from play and drove his team forward time and again with his turbo-charged runs and clever distribution.

Tony Kelly (Clare)

Tony Kelly marked his first start of the year with a typically classy performance that inspired Clare to victory over Offaly. He finished with a personal tally of 2-12, which included 1-5 from play.

Austin Gleeson (Waterford)

14-man Waterford wouldn’t have come away from Corrigan Park with a hard-fought two-point win over Antrim were it not for a sparkling display from Austin Gleeson. He scored eight points, including three from play and a converted sideline cut.

Players of the Week are decided based on votes cast by followers of the Official GAA Instagram page.
